P:  They restrained not one another from the wickedness they did.  Verily evil was that they used to do!

S:  They used not to forbid each other the hateful things (which) they did; certainly evil was that which they did.

005.080 Y:  Thou seest many of them turning in friendship to the Unbelievers.  Evil indeed are (the works) which their souls have sent forward before them (with the result), that Allah’s wrath is on them, and in torment will they abide.

P:  Thou seest many of them making friends with those who disbelieve.  Surely ill for them is that which they themselves send on before them:  that Allah will be wroth with them and in the doom they will abide.

S:  You will see many of them befriending those who disbelieve; certainly evil is that which their souls have sent before for them, that Allah became displeased with them and in chastisement shall they abide.

005.081 Y:  If only they had believed in Allah, in the Prophet, and in what hath been revealed to him, never would they have taken them for friends and protectors, but most of them are rebellious wrong-doers.

P:  If they believed in Allah and the Prophet and that which is revealed unto him, they would not choose them for their friends.  But many of them are of evil conduct.

S:  And had they believed in Allah and the prophet and what was revealed to him, they would not have taken them for friends but! most of them are transgressors.

005.082 Y:  Strongest among men in enmity to the believers wilt thou find the Jews and Pagans; and nearest among them in love to the believers wilt thou find those who say, “We are Christians”:  because amongst these are men devoted to learning and men who have renounced the world, and they are not arrogant.

P:  Thou wilt find the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe (to be) the Jews and the idolaters.  And thou wilt find the nearest of them in affection to those who believe (to be) those who say:  Lo!  We are Christians.  That is because there are among them priests and monks, and because they are not proud.

S:  Certainly you will find the most violent of people in enmity for those who believe (to be) the Jews and those who are polytheists, and you will certainly find the nearest in friendship to those who believe (to be) those who say:  We are Christians; this is because there are priests and monks among them and because they do not behave proudly.

005.083 Y:  And when they listen to the revelation received by the Messenger, thou wilt see their eyes overflowing with tears, for they recognise the truth:  they pray:  “Our Lord! we believe; write us down among the witnesses.”

P:  When they listen to that which hath been revealed unto the messengers, thou seest their eyes overflow with tears because of their recognition of the Truth.  They say:  Our Lord, we believe.  Inscribe us as among the witnesses.
